Ote Johnson's home-run drive over the right-garden wall In the third Inning of yesterday's baseball contest between Portland and San Francisco decided one of the best pitchers' battles 'seen on the Vaughn-street lot In many a day. Inci dentally, the terrible Swede's healthy swing resulted In the only tally corralled by either club, for Long Bobby Groom was at his best, and the Seals were ab solutely helpless when It came to nego tiating runs. Groom's feat makes two whitewash performances In a row for Portland, and this sort of baseball Is the kind that makes the fans ait up and take notice. Even though it required a home run to win. Portland earned the game fairly and squarely, for the home guard out played the Seals in every Inning. "Sliv ers'" Henley was on the mound for the visitors, and his work was of the high est class. He worked hard to win. and up to the time he was chased by Umpire Flyr.n. who. by the way. Is a decided improvement upon most of the officials seen in these parts of recent years. Slivers" pitched grand ball. He had re tired the first two Portlanders to face him In the third Inning, and missed cal culations on the home team's heavy hit ter. This resulted in Johnson rapping & heme-run clout, on which there were ro frills, nor the slightest doubt aa to i'.a legality, for the ball sailed high over tj-ft r'ght garden enclosure and bounded t-r the Exposition building adjacent to h fllo. fff'chior end Mohler both ran as soon a the bJ! waa bl, but one glance at it sailing high In the. air waa enough for fiem. and knowing that further effort at fielding on their part was futile, they halted and calmly watched the ball sail out of sight and out of the lot. Beck and Hlldebrand. of the visiting club, each secured a two-play swat oft Groom's delivery, but the lanky one was there with the required fooilers on the following batsmen, and the sluggers were left on the sacks to contemplate what might have been. The Seals ac quired three hits, including the afore mentioned doubles, but there waa noth ing doing when the same would have been turned Into runs. On the other hand. Portland found . Henley frequently, but he was equally aood in pinches, and prevented the home guard from connecting safely when hits meant runs. In the second Inning. Port- land really earned two runs, but Um pires Cneyne and Flynn ruled that Bob by Groom's homer between the sections of the right field fence waa a hit inside the grounds, and Whaling, who tried to score on the hit. was tossed out at the plate. Most every one present ia satis fied that Bobby should have had a home run for the hit. but as he won the game anyway, they are content with the de cislon. At the opening of the eighth Inning Henley switched balls on the umpire, and objected when ordered to use the ball originally handed him by the official. The resulting argument caused "Silv ers" to be banished from the scene, and Kid Mohler sent a youngster named Griffin (no relation to H. D.) on the mound. The kid performed very well, for he disposed of the three men who fared him quite easily. The game was witnessed by several prominent baseball moguls of the Pa cific Coast. President J. Cal Ewlng. of the Pacific Coast League: Henry Berry, owner of the Los Angeles club; D. E. Dugdale. owner of the Seattle club of the Northwestern League, and William H. Lucas, president of the Northwestern Ieague. being among the guests of Judge W. W. McCredie. The moguls are here In a conference over baseball matters, the result of which may not be known for several days. The score of yesterday's game Is as follows: SAN FRANCISCO. a score of S to 4. Numerous errors by the Oaklanders helped the Southerners on to victory. In the fourth Inning the score was tied. 4 to 4. Los Angeles played an errorless game. Score: LOS ANGELES.

Although the sun shone glorl ously today, a biting wind prevailed and seriously Interfered with the work or the fielders. Califf proved a better Arc tic leaguer than Samuels and won hands down. After the fourth Inning Califf waa steady, and but for an error on an easy chance, would have scored shut-out. In the third Califf led oft Ith a single and Streib was passed. Van Buren sacrificed and Samuels filled the bases by hitting Brlnker. House holder's single Into left scored one and Fitzgerald's corking drive to the same vicinity scored two more. In the sev enth Boettlger's pass, Callff's sacrifice and Van Buren's single netted one run. In the eighth Boettlger made a bad heave to first on Hurley'a grounder and Irby scored Hurley with a three- bagger. Butte loaded the bases In the first and fourth, but the locals tight ened and prevented a score in either inning. Features of the game were Van Buren's magnificent catch in cen ter.

McCredie Makes Effort for Eight Club Organization, but Los An geles Stands Out for Con tinuous Baseball. BT W J. PETRAIN. The session- of the baseball moguls of the Pacific Coast, which has been In conference in Portland since last Frlrlav. vesterdav concluded without anything being definitely determined relative to the affiliation of Seattle, Tacoma and other Northwestern League towns with the Pacific Coast League; The meeting seemed to be a gather ing wherein all hands were working at cross purposes and no one was willing to make concessions wnerepy a new order of things could have been per f ected. Judge McCredie, of Portland, held out and is still Insisting upon a league with four clubs in the North and four clubs In the South. This view of the matter proved entirely at variance with bA wishes of Henry Berry, of Los Angeles, who Is especially espous lnsr the arrantinar of continuous base ball to the Orange City. Continuous baseball at Los Angeles does not meet with the approval of the Portland mag nates, nor does it look good to 'the fans, for this end of the circuit has alreadv been the tail of a California kite long enough and does not relish the prospect of being a mere spot on the aforementioned kite instead. Port land is too prominent a factor in the success of Pacific Coast baseball to be continued in the role of caudal ap pondage, and It therefore behooves the magnates from the soutniana to con cede something to tnis city. Manager Berry, of Los Angeles., i marked that it would not be a good thin for the Pacific Coast League to take In Seatt'.e and Tacoma, for the rea son that it would require several years to build up strong teams In those cities but at the same time he favors taking In Sacramento and putting an extra team in Los Angeles. Will Brother Ber ry kindly explain how he will put "strong enough " teams In those places, ana wny, If It Is possible to do so there, it is not possible to do so in Seattle? While McCredie ana uerry were argu ing matters along the lines mentioned, D. E. Dugdale, Seattle s factotum in the baseball world, advanced his own argu- ent, which was to the effect that the only fit place for Portland was in the Northwest League, and Dug was era phatlc in his statement that it was the only circuit for Portland. The cherubic Seattle magnate was In the minority. however, for the. only second he had to his argument was William H. Lucas, president of the Northwestern League. Judge McCredie held out for an eight- club league, and announced that he would continue to do so. J. Cal Ewing. president of the Pacific Coast League, took in the meeting calm ly and quietly. Mr. Ewing smiled fre quently at the various arguments ad vanced by the rival magnates. He sel dom offered anything, but when he did he seemed to lavor McCredie's proposi tion. t Berry's claims for continuous base ball in Los Angeles, while satisfactory from a Los Angeles point of view, have but little charm for this end 'of the circuit. The southern end 'of the clr cult Is a good baseball town, but so is Portland, and Portland is equally en titled to consideration, but does not desire continuous baseball. The baseball magnates met every day for nearly a week, and last night, after It was found that they were no nearer solution of the problem than when they started In, it was decided to ad journ the meeting until a later date. Manager Dugdale and President Lucas left last night for Seattle, and Messrs. Berry and Ewlng will leave shortly for California. And the anxious baseball fans will have to be satisfied with spec ulation until something more definite develops. Baseball magnates are a pe culiar lot almost as peculiar as some of the ballplayers to whom they pay the salaries. GOSS AND FREEMAN LIKELY IN MEN'S DOUBLES.

Dr. Wm. Osier in a recent address to physi cians. At las some of our eminent phy sicians are beginning to tell the truth about drugs. They have de ceived the people Just about as long as they can. unless they check the advance of science. It is science that has "shown them up. proved that m a n's body is e 1 e c t r ical; that electricity runs our bodies and produces what we call life. It has shown that most all sickness and chronic dis orders are due to a lack of electric energy. It has taught us the w o r thlessness of drugs, that they are only poisons. and poisons don't cure. The reason Am era don't cure is because they tio not help Jature. Nature needs electricity, nourish ment, something that builds up. Dr-igs contain no nourishment no electricity just poison which tears down. . My way of curing is to restore electricity where It is needed, and pain and sickness will disappear. That's because electricity give strength, power to the body, en abling every orsan to perform its work properly, and when every organ is in a strong, healthy condi tion there can be no pain or sick ness. , m ..
